How to Force a Listing Details URL for WordPress via myRealPage

By default, when a listing is clicked, it opens a pop-up window to display the details of that listing on a predefined page. You will now be able to open the listings detail under any page you create. This is a known workaround to make listings display correctly when using ELEMENTOR on WordPress.

This helps make navigation easier for your site visitors, and helps to maintain a consistent look when listings are being viewed on your website.

Note: This technique only works for the IDX listings (list IDX and predefined searches), and not for the "my listings" or "office listings" pages.

Please note that this change will require you to complete the following tasks:

1. Part 1: Create/Assign a main "backend" page that has the MRP Listings shortcode.
2. Part 2: Modify your settings within the MRP Private Office
